Ken Ofori Atta can go to heaven and come down he would be arrested, he would be prosecuted and he would be jailed, no amount of noise can stop that” he stated.
Mustapha Gbande added, “He was the holder of the public purse and the public purse has been misused are you not aware, are you not aware that the NPP government misused our state funds are you not aware he stole money, are you not aware that any cheque that went to a contractor or a government institution where the funds were misused came from Ken Ofori-Atta.
Are you not aware the SML deal was a scandal, and so I am just saying that the state can arrest you on a Rambo style, they can choose to invite you, they can choose to go on a party with you, the National Security choose to go in this way, those questioning why Soldiers were used President Akufo-Addo regime they were using soldiers as drivers”, he further detailed.
